Heiankyo love story

Not long after the Dragon God Festival passed, the identity of "White Paizi" was suspected by Jibu Shaocheng Fujiwara Takamichi.

For Heian Jing, who "bloodline determines status", if Bai Paizi is not "the daughter of a courtier married to the emperor" but an ordinary commoner without noble blood, then even if she has the same talent, it is even better than the current talent , she will definitely not be sought after. People who were obsessed with Bai Paizi in the past avoided and dispersed on the day they learned the truth.In this way, Da Nayan's bewilderment was reported to Yinyangliao. After Celine's enchanting spell was unraveled, Da Nayan was angry and ashamed of what he had done during this period, and directly called sick leave It's a long vacation.

King Ma Cang Ye told the results of the investigation of Yin Yang Liao, shaking his head amusingly.

"This time, the nobles who were confused by the white beat all claimed to be on sick leave, and Chao Zhongdeng was free for a little while. I don't know when they will 'heal'."

Jiang Xue laughed out loud.

"It's okay, they can continue to rest, anyway, they are all father's political enemies."

This is true.

Some aristocratic officials headed by Dai Nayan have been competing with the left minister Fujiwara Michijo in the court before. As long as Fujiwara Michijo advocates, they will oppose it. Very difficult between the two parties.Now that Nagano said he was sick, and these followers also said he was sick, the court has become Michijo Fujiwara's one-spoken hall, and it is much easier to deal with many things.

Ma Cangye Wang said with a half-smile: "Minister Zuo is not absolutely fair and correct."

Jiang Xue asked back: "Who can be absolutely fair and correct? Mr. Ma Cang always wants to use the standards of saints to demand ordinary people. This is really too much, even you can't do it." She paused, Added, "There is a word for 'self-righteousness', this is the state of most people, we all think that we are 'right', and carry out our own beliefs, how many people can persist when they know they are wrong? You can say that people who make mistakes are stupid, but demanding that everyone be absolutely right is an unrealistic luxury in itself.”

"...Does Xue Ji think so? Do I use the standards of a saint to demand mortals?"

King Ma Cang Ye smiled slightly.

Jiang Xue instinctively sensed something subtle, but she still nodded.

"Speaking of which, Ma Cang-kun's ideal is also the ideal of a saint. Could it be that... you have always compared yourself to a saint?"

King Ma Cang Ye chuckled and said, "Does Xue Ji still remember my ideal?"

"Of course, how can I forget it." Jiang Xue thought about it, and the text of the conversation at that time appeared immediately in front of her eyes, and she read it out, "I want to create a world where there are no disputes, no wars, and harmony between man and nature. world, isn't it?"

King Ma Cang Ye showed a surprised expression, and it took a while before he regained his smile.

"Then, is Xue Ji still thinking the same as back then?"

"Huh?" Jiang Xue was stunned for a moment, not quite sure whether the "same as at that time" referred to her ideal or her opinion on this ideal, and said hesitantly, "If Ma Cang-jun is asking about my opinion It's still the same as it was back then. I'm just a mortal, and I'm afraid I can't help much except to sigh for such an ideal song that belongs to a saint, or to play a song."

Hearing this, King Ma Cang Ye smiled gently.

"It's okay...Xue Ji just needs to watch."

Jiang Xue nodded and replied with a smile: "If I just watch, I can do it."

At this moment, a white bird flew over from a distance, circled several times over the yard, and uttered a song.

Jiang Xue looked up and said strangely: "It's really rare, why does this bird keep flying around here?"

King Ma Cang Ye said nonchalantly, "Because they are here to find me."

He raised his hand and made a seal, temporarily opening the barrier.

The white bird immediately jumped into the barrier, and landed straight in front of the two of them, bringing a gust of wind when it landed.

Jiang Xue was about to ask, "Is this a carrier pigeon?", when she saw that white bird turned into a talisman and a letter in Ma Cang Yewang's hands, she was so startled that her eyeballs almost fell to the ground.

"……This is……"

Ma Cang Ye Wang casually put the letter beside him, changed the talisman back into a white bird and let it fly.

"It's just a shikigami who sends messages, it's faster than a messenger—" He glanced at Jiang Xue and said with a smile, "It also saves travel expenses."

Jiang Xue was squeezed a bit, and her mouth was flattened.

This guy really didn't want to suffer at all. Anyway, since he became friends, his words became more and more unforgiving.

But that's not what she's focusing on now.

"Hey? Will the talisman turn into a bird? How can it determine where the person it is looking for is? Will it not find the wrong place or the wrong person?"

King Ma Cang Ye laughed.

"Of course not. Shikigami seeks people based on spiritual power. Even if they are from the same family or sect, the nature of spiritual power cannot be exactly the same. However, if you want to accurately find a specific person, you must have contact with the other party's spiritual power." , otherwise, you will need the other party's hair, nails or blood, or the belongings you carry all year round. If you are not sure who you are looking for at the beginning, Shikigami may not be able to find someone."

so smart?

Jiang Xue looked up at the sky again, and the white bird had already disappeared, so she ignored the flying shikigami and asked curiously, "Who sent you a letter like this?"

King Macang Ye glanced at the pentagram on the envelope, feeling a hint of impatience in his heart.

"My people."

"……what?"

Jiang Xue looked at King Ma Cang Ye in surprise.

"Your clan? You still have family?"

Seeing that he has been living alone in Ping An Jing, she thought all his relatives were dead!

"Well, it's just not in Ping'an-kyo." Asakura Yewang said lightly, "The Asakura main family is in Izumo."

"Izumo..." Jiang Xue thought for a while, "Ah, is this the place where we first met?"

Ma Cangye Wang thought of the scene at that time, and the unhappiness in his heart dissipated a little, and he subconsciously laughed.

"Yes, it was precisely because the Asakura family was in Izumo that they sent me there at that time. Unexpectedly, Her Highness Xue Ji had already dealt with those wraith ghosts first."

My family is in Izumo, traveling thousands of miles on business, and didn't go home to have a look first, but rushed back to Ping'an capital?

There seems to be something weird about this.

Jiang Xue didn't think it was a harmonious family, otherwise, King Ma Cangye should always mention her family, even if she was so against the Fujiwara family before, now she has naturally called her father, mother and brother.

However, it is not uncommon to have a bad relationship with her family. Think about her biological father she has never met, and think about her mother who almost killed her and died because of her. What right does she have to say that the family is not good? Mu?

Jiang Xue thought about it, so she stopped asking questions, so as not to poke people's scars, and said along the previous topic: "It was really thanks to Ma Cang-jun, otherwise, I still don't know how to get to Ping'an Jing."

King Ma Cang Ye couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.

"Even if I'm not here, Xue Ji has a way to come back, but I'm really glad that I went to Izumo at that time." He changed the topic, and his voice suddenly became extremely soft, "If you miss getting to know Xue Ji because of this It would be such a pity.”

Jiang Xue blinked and said with a smile: "That may not be missed, maybe when I return to Ping'an Jing, we will still meet somewhere and in a certain way."

King Ma Cang Ye shook his head and said meaningfully: "At that time, I would only know 'Fujiwara Xue Ji', not 'Xue Ji'."

Jiang Xue was still thinking about the magic of Fu Neng turning into a bird, so she was a little absent-minded, so she didn't care, and replied casually: "What's the difference? I'm Fujiwara Yukihime, and Fujiwara Yukihime is me."

King Ma Cang Ye didn't answer, he lowered his head and opened the envelope, read the letter at a glance, and sneered in his heart.

Seeing that the other party was reading the letter, Jiang Xue consciously turned her eyes away.

"Speaking of which, will the stock sect wake up tomorrow?"

"...Yes." Ma Cang Yewang slowly refolded the letter paper, put it back into the envelope, and set fire to the envelope together, "However, if Xue Ji wants to see the stock sect, I'm afraid she will have to wait for a while Now, I'm going back to Izumo, it's inconvenient to leave the stock sect in Beijing. When I come back, Xue Ji will come again."

Jiang Xue watched Ma Cang Ye Wang burn the letter quietly, and became more and more sure of her guess - this person must have a bad relationship with her family, otherwise, how could he burn it after receiving the letter, so he said that he would go back to Izumo Come on, it's not going back to fight, is it?

She imagined it for a while, and felt that she couldn't imagine this kind of picture. She shook her head to get rid of the confused picture in her mind. She hesitated for a while, but she still couldn't resist her curiosity.

"Is there any important thing for Asakura-kun to return to Izumo? If you can't say it, just pretend that I didn't ask."

"It's not an important thing, I just have to go." King Ma Cang Ye clapped his hands, completely removed the ashes from the burnt letter paper, and said lightly, "The old Patriarch wants to pass on the position of Patriarch to me, Ji The time is set."

Jiang Xue was speechless.

It doesn't matter?

The relationship between this person and the family is not normal, is it?

"...This should be a very important matter, right? How long will Asakang-kun be going?"

King Ma Cang Ye replied: "Two months round trip is enough. I will ask Yinyang Liao for leave. During this time, if Xue Ji has anything to do, go to Abe Masahiro. Although he is not good at skills, he has powerful parents."

Jiang Xue couldn't laugh or cry.

"I'm not asking this because I'm worried about my own safety! It's very important to take over the clan. The Asakura main family should invite someone to watch the ceremony, right? Asakura-kun just goes back to Izumo alone without notifying anyone? "

This is an opportunity to show off the power and connections of the family!

If Mr. Fujiwara wants to pass on the position of Patriarch to Fujiwara Yorimichi, it is estimated that all the nobles in Heiankyo can squeeze into Fujiwara's house, wishing to level the threshold.Even if the Asakura family can't compare with the Fujiwara family, we must invite some important guests and friends, right?

King Ma Cang Ye smiled lightly, and asked back: "Xue Ji thinks, if I invite you, which nobleman will travel thousands of miles to go out of the clouds to watch the ceremony?"

Jiang Xue thought for a while, this person is a person who has almost no friends, if the ceremony is held in Heian-kyo, the nobles may still see some people for the sake of the Fujiwara family, if they go to Izumo...

Hmm... Sure enough, the answer is no.

The disadvantage of too few friends appears at this time.

Jiang Xue thought so in her heart, so naturally she wouldn't say it out of her mouth, and said with a smile: "Then, if the daughter of the Fujiwara family is going to watch the ceremony, can she enter the gate of the Asakura family?"

King Ma Cang Ye was stunned for a while, then shook his head with a smile.

"The Ma Cang family is not worth Xue Ji's hard work."

Jiang Xue raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"I didn't go for the Ma Cang family - I went for Ma Cang Ye Wang. You want to succeed the Patriarch, and as your only friend, I should support you and not let those people look down on you."

King Ma Cang Ye stared at Jiang Xue for a moment, then nodded helplessly.

"Then, it seems that I can only thank you."

"You're welcome, just don't force me to climb over the wall in the future."

Jiang Xue smiled and waved her hands.

"I'll go back and pack my luggage first. When I'm leaving, you must come and let me know—otherwise, I won't be the only 'Fujiwara' who will appear in Izumo."

Ma Cang Yewang said dumbfoundedly: "Xue Ji, don't worry, I will naturally not leave without saying goodbye. You have given the Ma Cang family enough face by coming alone, don't bring other people here..."

Those people can't afford such "glorious favor", I'm afraid that more ambitions and unrealistic delusions will emerge in a blink of an eye.

Jiang Xue left happily.

Ah, go to Izumo, I have never played this event before, and it turns out that it is correct to go over the wall!
